The above code is for matchingbrackets, but I stumbled upon ArrayList method lastIndexOf.
However, it is not fetching the correct index and is working like indexOf method.
Should I use stack or linkedlist instead of ArrayList?
Also, any help on iterating an arraylist and removing its element, since iterator and foreach gives error.
